IOP1 and IOP2 Commands The IOP1 and IOP2 commands perform operations on the IOPs. Table 5-6 lists the IOP1 and IOP2 commands. Table 5-6 IOP1 and IOP2 Commands Command IOP Disable Operation IOP Enable Operation IOP Shutdown Operation Page 5-21 5-22 5-23 IOP Disable Operation This command disables (removes) the specified IOP from the active Endurance server configuration. You can use this command to start a maintenance procedure described in Chapter 9. You can also use this command to remove an IOP that is not operating properly so that you can verify whether the Endurance server operates correctly without it. For a disabled IOP to rejoin the Endurance server, you must issue an IOP Enable Operation command. Warning: When you issue this command, all I/O devices on the specified IOP are unavailable to the CEs. To ensure Endurance server availability while the IOP is disabled, follow the precautions listed in Shutting Down an IOP on page 9-5 before issuing this command.
